He must have been very recently wethered! The stink is a buck thing that will fade in time now that he's neutered (but probably not until spring when he sheds his coat). Also, are you 100% sure he's wethered?
There's a very good chance that since he's more mature, he'd do great with a couple of younger goats. Goats that are raised with others their own age, or yearlings put with younger goats are usually the worst bullies. Since this guy is older and probably a little lonely for others of his kind, he's more likely to take to youngsters. The fact that he's been a buck for two years may also help with that. Bucks are often better herd leaders than wethers. The hormones must help their parenting instincts or something.
